18. Indianapolis Colts (15)
Even with a healthy Andrew Luck, this seems like the same frustrating Indianapolis Colts from one year ago, and the defense is to blame.
Don’t be fooled by Luck’s numbers (31 of 47 for 385 yards with four touchdowns) as the quarterback was forced to rally this team from a 21-3 deficit to the Lions. With all due respect to Detroit, Indianapolis should never have allowed the game to get to this point as the defensive issues from preseason are still present.
There’s been numerous instances from the last few seasons where Luck has put up monster numbers after helping his team overcome a big deficit, and just like on Sunday, it usually ends in disappointment. With all of the competitive teams in the AFC South, the Colts are going to need all of the wins they can get throughout the season.
Otherwise, this team is going to miss out on the playoffs for the second-straight season.
